Book excerpt: In June 2018, two historians set out to re-trace the steps of America's greatest explorers, Lewis and Clark. Beginning in St. Louis under the Gateway Arch, Nelsen Petersen and Dean Shissler began a 14-day journey - in a Pontiac Vibe named "Kyle" with over 200,000 miles and questionable brakes - that ended on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. Joined halfway by Don Kern, an ageless adventurer with over 320 marathons to his credit, the trio began to understand the overwhelming accomplishments of the Corps of Discovery from 1804-1806. Dealing with cheap hotels, oppressive heat (with no A/C in the car), inaccurate historical markers, micro-breweries and the consequences of poor travel planning, this trio of modern day explorers invite you to relive their journey through America's rugged west along the Lewis and Clark Trail.
